I've Been Selling Artwork from Damaged Vintage Books

Over on my vintage vlog on YouTube one of the main things I love to collect and sell are old illustrated books.

But when a vintage 1948 children's book I had in my collection lost its cover, I wanted to talk about how I saw an opportunity instead of a setback.

I've been removing illustrated pages from books I find that have been damaged and selling them as standalone art prints. 

It gives new life and value to the damaged book!

Check out some of the other prints I have for sale in my eBay store.

Up until that point I really liked how it was going. It kinda blocked the whole thing. I'll figure something out.
